Lyrics

FAST TRACK INTO NOWHERE
© D. Mark Ragg

He was looking for beauty but settled for drama
Finally he found his queen.
He had been searching? she saw only karma
Her horoscope had frequently foreseen
And hot
Oh he?s not
He had a car
It didn?t matter
There was no talking only taking
They?re taking the fast track
The fast track into nowhere
And that?s exactly where they want to be.

She was looking for romance but settled for the wind
As he swept her up and took her for a ride
Like a bat out of Lubek they headed down the road
Still smiling she settled to his side.
And cash
No stash
He had a gun
It didn?t matter
There was no talking only taking
And they?re taking the fast track
The fast track into nowhere
And that?s exactly where they want to be.

Her mom and dad were frantic, how could she be so late.
Their baby might be lying in a ditch.
Waves of panic came
Life forever changed
And oh the pain
Moments felt like hours and hours slipped away.
While baby girl she slipped between the sheets
Arms behind her holding tight
He sense of time taking flight
All along she knew this was her fate.

She was looking out the door but watching for the heat
As Bobby, got money from the store.
With them lying on the floor, Bobby checked the drawer for more
Then out the door and squeelin? down the street
The plan
It ran
And state by state
The stash grew fatter
There was no talking only taking
And they?re taking the fast track
The fast track into nowhere
And that?s exactly where they want to be.

He was looking in the rear view, seeing lights a flashing
Time had come to air the engine out
Hear the hemi start to roar, Bobby punched it to the floor
They squealed around the corner to their fate
Road block
No thought
Crash right through,
flip it over
There was no talking only taking
And they?re taking the fast track
The fast track into nowhere
And that?s exactly where they want to be.

Her mom and dad were frantic, how could she be so late.
Their baby might be lying in a ditch.
Waves of panic came
Life forever changed
And oh the pain
Moments felt like hours and days they slipped away.
While baby girl she slipped between the sheets
Bands around her holding tight
He sense of self now taking flight
All along she knew this was her fate.
